The official in-game description for this particular Class is as follows:

"Sinister and precise, the Bounty Hunter specializes in targeting a single foe to deliver its head for the reward. He has found that simply striking before thinking is an ineffective way to kill, so he has taught himself many ways to take advantage of his foe's vulnerabilities."

It adds:

"If they wear armor, he can find the weak points in it. If they are reeling from a hit, he'll make a surprise attack to strike it down. Even the enemies who think they're safe behind their frontlines will find that the Bounty Hunter's grappling hook can pull them in or slice them up. And if all else fails, he can drop flash grenades or sucker punch enemies to disorient them. No matter the situation, this calculating killer will have an answer for it."

With the following in mind, here are the Bounty Hunter’s recommended Skills:

  • Finish Him: A melee attack that casts from the first position. Deals an additional 25% damage against Stunned enemies.
